Links and hyperlinks

In the case of links and hyperlinks to external Internet pages which do not fall under BIBB's sphere of responsibility, BIBB's liability is limited solely to those instances where BIBB was aware of the illegal content on the particular page, it would be technically feasible for BIBB to prevent visitors to this site from accessing illegal content and it would not be unreasonable to demand this of the publisher. BIBB expressly distances itself from all illegal content on linked external pages. BIBB has no influence whatsoever on either the present or future form or the content of linked external pages. For this reason, BIBB distances itself from all content on all linked pages which has been modified since the link on the BIBB site was created. This applies to all links and hyperlinks on BIBB's own Internet site as well as to entries made by third parties in guestbooks, discussion forums and mailing lists that BIBB has set up. Liability for any illegal, incorrect or incomplete content and, in particular, for any damages arising from the use or non-use of information offered on linked pages lies solely with the provider of the linked or hyperlinked page, and not with BIBB which only referred the user to the particular page through a link.Copyright and the protection of names, trademarks and other symbols of identification  BIBB strives to observe the copyrights of all graphics, sound documents, video sequences and texts in all publications, to use graphics, sound documents, video sequences and texts it has created itself or make use of graphics, sound documents, video sequences and texts that do not require a license. All trademarks and brand names mentioned on the BIBB Internet site and possibly copyrighted by a third party are unconditionally subject to the provisions of the applicable law on the protection of names, trademarks and other symbols of identification and the rights of ownership of the respective registered holder. A trademark's simple mention on a BIBB web page which does not include an indication of its legal status is not to be construed as meaning that it is not registered! The duplication or use of such graphics, sound documents, video sequences or texts in other electronic or printed publications is not permitted without BIBB's express consent.
